Reach Out <strong>to</strong> People<br />
Have you ever received comments on your <strong>Facebook</strong> page that you wanted <strong>to</strong> follow up on? Using<br />
your <strong>Facebook</strong> page, you can’t privately message someone unless they have contacted your page first.<br />
This is a situation where your personal profile comes in handy.<br />
You can attempt <strong>to</strong> send a private message <strong>to</strong> the person using your personal profile. If you’re not<br />
friends with them, your message may end up in the Other folder. But, at least you can reply <strong>to</strong> the person’s<br />
comment on your page and say that you sent them a private message. This approach could help<br />

your friends or the pages you like.<br />
To utilize <strong>Facebook</strong> groups for your business, you have two options: join pre-existing groups or create<br />
your own group.<br />

business owners can join word-of-mouth or business referral groups in their area. <strong>The</strong>se are groups<br />
that locals join <strong>to</strong> get recommendations for products and services in their area.<br />
To get the most business exposure in a <strong>Facebook</strong> group, you will want <strong>to</strong> be a valuable contribu<strong>to</strong>r<br />
